Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City's Emergency Operations Plan is overdue, and reliance on fragmented, competing notification platforms creates critical gaps in coordinated public alerting. Flash flood vulnerability and the absence of an audit-ready emergency management framework elevate both public safety risk and accountability exposure.
The opportunity
The SB 3 Outdoor Warning Siren Grant carries a December 2026 deadline, and the active FY2026–2027 budget process with September hearings creates an immediate funding window. Addressing these gaps now strengthens community resilience, satisfies compliance requirements, and positions the City to capture available grant dollars before the cycle closes.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Document Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The City faces an April 2028 WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline for public-facing digital portals and document workflows, with current accessibility gaps creating legal exposure and barriers to resident access. Unresolved non-compliance risks ADA-related litigation and undermines equitable access to city services for residents with disabilities.
The opportunity
The active FY2026–2027 budget process—with a 160% increase in the IT budget line—creates an immediate funding pathway to address compliance before the April 2028 deadline. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces legal risk, supports equitable resident access, and aligns remediation costs with available appropriations.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Vehicle Safety Monitoring
Fleet Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The City's fleet faces recurring mechanical issues—including brake, tire, and recall concerns—while lacking telematics integration to support proactive maintenance and incident response. Existing dashcam hardware is in use but operates in isolation, limiting real-time fleet visibility and increasing operational and liability risk.
The opportunity
The active FY2026–2027 budget cycle, including a significant IT budget increase, creates a near-term funding pathway for a phased telematics pilot. Cooperative purchasing vehicles available to the City can streamline procurement and accelerate deployment within the current fiscal window.

Discuss this project →Strengthen Cybersecurity Training and Credential Security
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Governance
High Priority
About this project
The city faces active cybersecurity training mandates while current remote access practices and fragmented credential management create measurable gaps in endpoint security and user access governance. Without a unified approach, the city remains exposed to unauthorized access risks and audit findings that could disrupt operations and public services.
The opportunity
Cybersecurity upgrades are already funded within the city's strategic initiatives, and the Homeland Security Grant Program represents an additional eligible funding pathway. Acting within the current budget cycle allows the city to close compliance gaps, reduce operational risk, and demonstrate responsible stewardship of public infrastructure.

Discuss this project →Unified IT Endpoint Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Remote Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
The city's current IT environment relies on a fragmented remote access tool with no unified endpoint monitoring or management solution in place, creating visibility gaps and operational risk. IT modernization and systems reporting have been identified as needs, but remain unfunded, leaving staff and infrastructure without consistent oversight.
The opportunity
The city's active FY2026–2027 budget development process, paired with a 160% increase in the IT budget line, creates a near-term funding pathway for this initiative. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement, and incoming leadership may present an opening to advance modernization priorities.
